Creighton will be looking to start their season off with a win. They are the favorites, as they are nationally ranked and at home. Meanwhile, UMKC is one of the worst ranked teams in the country. However, the Bluejays can’t afford to look past the Kangaroos. They’ll be playing relatively close to their home arena and UMKC would love nothing more than to upset the Bluejays.
